Editor's Notes
- Who is Raleigh International? [Optional questions - What are people’s knowledge or experience of Raleigh in the room?] – Raleigh has been around for 30 years and has been through a number of changes, even our name has changed! From Operation Drake, Operation Raleigh, Raleigh and now Raleigh International. In this time we have changed countries and what we do on our projects and expeditions. The next slide defines what Raleigh is.
- Who is Raleigh International? Let people read the definition Raleigh International is a sustainable development charity, who challenge and inspire young volunteers from around the world to work with communities living in poverty.
- Key Message What is our Vision? – (Vision means how we would like the world to be) By “global community” we mean all people from all different places and backgrounds working together: Raleigh programmes have volunteers from all over the world, of particular importance are the in-country volunteers and the communities which we work with. By “a sustainable future” we mean a world in which future generations are able to exist and provide for their needs. What is our Mission? – (Mission means how we plan on getting there) Inspiring young people – we do this by getting young people to take part in these projects, giving them an inspirational experience and developing life skills. Agents of change – our Raleigh alumni are people who take responsibility and action to make the world a better place.
- Let people read this slide – talk it through if you would like. This slide is supposed to introduce your audience to the concept and practice of sustainable development
- Raleigh currently operates in 5 countries It runs Expeditions to Costa Rica and Nicaragua, Nepal, Tanzania and Malaysian Borneo. It also runs a different programme, called International Citizen Service, in Nicaragua, Tanzania and Nepal.
- Key messages: Point out key areas The capital is Dar es Salaam on the East coast, and Fieldbase is in Morogoro. Extra, optional information Tanzania has a tropical climate. Temperatures rarely dip below 20°C in most of the country. The hottest time of year is from November – February when temperatures tend to stay between 25°C and 31°C whilst the coldest period is between May and August (15°C - 20°C). Tanzania’s wet season is generally from October – May.
- Key messages: (This slide is supposed to explain why you are volunteering in this country, and what the needs are there) Tanzania has seen good economic growth in recent years, but is still one of the poorest countries in the world. A substantial amount of the population still live in poverty, and 33% live on less than $1.25 a day. Rural communities are especially affected by issues of poverty, with many communities lacking access clean water and sanitation facilities A good article for infomration on youth poverty in Tanzania: http://blogs.worldbank.org/africacan/youth-in-tanzania-a-growing-uneducated-labor-force
- A photo from Tanzania
- In Costa Rica and Nicaragua, Raleigh works on two project areas, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, Natural Resource Management The next slides will go on to elaborate each of these and explain what I will be doing in more detail.
- Key messages One of Raleigh's areas of work across all countries is accessing Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) The negative impacts of poor access to Water, Sanitation and Hygiene are numerous As it causes illness leading to people not being able to work, or go to schools. This leads to poor health, lower incomes, lower access to education In order to address this I could be: Raising awareness about good sanitation practices such as hand washing or toilet use. Constructing infrastructure such as a gravity water feed system (bringing clean water from a higher up location and putting it into a tank) and then providing training on its importance, use and maintenance. Optional extras… This programme aims to improve access to and quality of water and sanitation services, in order to improve the overall health of beneficiary communities. Providing people in developing countries with access to safe drinking water and effective sanitation, combined with education on the importance of good hygiene practice, are some of the most cost effective ways of achieving real, positive results with regards to health, livelihoods and social impact. Improved health contributes to reducing poverty as family breadwinners are less likely to be prevented from working through illness and they don’t incur costly medical expenses which can be the equivalent of weeks or months of household income. The programme also addresses social development as collecting water usually falls to women and girls. Lack of access stops women from doing other activities and causes girls to miss school. It also exposes them to the risk of violence.
- Building a water system
- Community resilience covers a very broad range of areas. A community is resilient when it is able to adapt or develop after changes to its situation. For example Raleigh encourages education by constructing educational centres, and encourages their use through awareness raising events. In Borneo specifically, work focusses on getting access to primary education for the rural communities. Gaining access to schools leads to higher levels of education and community resilience. Alternatively, I might be working to encourage eco-tourism around a community, by maintaining trails and bridges, improving local infrastructure and engaging community groups such as business owners to support these projects. This leads to more diverse sources of income, rather than purely depending on agriculture. Resilient communities have the capacity and capability to respond to environmental, social and economic challenges. They are equipped to adapt, respond to, withstand and recover from unforeseen stress and challenges in their lives. They are healthier and more productive with secure and improving livelihoods; their children have access to education and they have and are members of supportive formal and informal community networks. All of this leads to more positive dynamics where people feel more in control of their future. The increase in opportunities leads to a greater sense of wellbeing and a better quality of life. Within this programme Raleigh helps communities to: • Gain access to education and other related services and information • Gain access to health services and information • Develop capabilities, skills and knowledge to be adaptable, creative problem solvers • Create versatile, sustainable ways of making money (livelihoods) • Foster and build networks in communities that provide skill sharing and support to further develop capabilities, civic participation, and sense of community • Prepare and plan measures to cope with or prevent potential environmental problems relating to climate change
- Key message from this slide One of the things that makes Raleigh special, is its focus on youth, and developing young people Globally, young people are heavily affected by poverty and the impacts of poverty Raleigh believes (refer back to Mission if you want!) that young people have an important role in causing and inspiring change. I will have the opportunity to lead my team, manage our activities and take on responsibility, developing my leadership and team working skills, whilst having a inspirational and hopefully life changing experience. I will then draw on these experiences in my future, becoming active in my local community, as well as internationally, taking action to make the world a better place. Optional Extras: We’re working to build a youth leadership culture that embraces the collective actions of formal and informal youth leaders, acting together to influence the achievement of our goals. We will help them take action and become active advocates in making the future more sustainable for everyone. We recognise that it is not simply the number or quality of individual leaders that determines success, but the ability of formal and informal leaders to work together, united in the desire to achieve shared goals. Progress does not stop when the young volunteers leave their programmes. Through our alumni work, we aim to give young people a voice. We encourage them to take the learning from their experience on our programmes and harness it at community, national and international levels.
